Autoists Plan To Frustrate Jailers
The Automobile Club of Indiana weighs making membership cards a bond for appearance in case of arrest. One side shows club affiliation, the other bears a signed hand to guarantee the driver’s appearance. If adopted, this plan would ease arrests for minor offenses by avoiding the need to locate someone to post appearance. The board favors the idea, aiming to implement it within a month as it also considers a club flag and seeks a home in the near future.
